Copter Airports Seen In Future By 1955 In Britain
Plans by British European Airways foresee helicopter stations with bookstalls refreshment rooms and waiting areas in most British cities by 1955. Rooftop air bus stations on railway stations would link rail and air travel, aided by state ownership of railways and BEA. The rapid Cardiff to Liverpool service and larger 12 to 16 seat helicopters drive the program.
